"A very good balance for this Gewurzt!"
"This Gewürztraminer successfully combines spicy and exotic floral complexity with vibrant pineapple and lychee notes, drawing you into its lush yet refreshing embrace. The finish is long and creamy, with plenty of character and wet stone notes." (James Suckling 2022)

Wine rated (2023 guide) 91/100
About wine:
The sugars are much better integrated in this version of Kaefferkopf, dedicated solely to Gewurztraminer: its semi-dry profile, enhanced by notes of spice, angelica, and candied citrus, gives it a very balanced flavor.

About wine:
This wine is spicy and has a pleasant bittersweet profile, with pink grapefruit peel, notes of lychee and cardamom, underscored by wet stones. The racy acidity maintains freshness and concentration for a lingering finish.
